[SOLVED] value=""

[Pavlos1316]

hi

 

is there a way that when you set a value for a text field not to be visible inside the text field?

 

thank you

 

[ratcateme]

do you mean a hidden form field <input type="hidden>

 

Scott.

[secoxxx]

either hidden like ratcatme said or <input type="password">

 

[Pavlos1316]

no

 

let me refrase

 

if I write

<input name="Name" type="text" id="Name" size="50" maxlength="19" value="Full Name"/>

I get a textfield that inside user can see whatever I set in value="". for this ex. Full Name

 

I need it to be a visible textfield but without show the value I set.

[ratcateme]

whats the point in that they are going to see the value when they view the page?

it appears what you want to do is imposable.

 

Scott.

[secoxxx]

umm, name="Full Name" and no value  ?

[MasterACE14]

you mean something like this?

<?php
if(isset($_GET['Name'] && !empty($_GET['Name'])) {
$value = "value=\"" . $_GET['Name'] . "\"";
} else {
$value = "value=\"\"";
}
?>
<input name="Name" type="text" id="Name" size="50" maxlength="19" <?=$value?> />

Use CSS to make the text in the box white (or match the bg colour).

Nope, i don't think he want it like that way.

I already give him idea in other thread.

He want to set full name to value but will not be visible. which i think is not possible.

Using hidden can.but he is not talking about that.He want to give visible textbox with value hidden.

NOT POSSIBLE like this way.i didn't heard that in my whole life. maybe have solution. Not sure.

<input name="Name" type="text" id="Name" size="50" maxlength="19" <?=$value?> />

 

<?=$value?>

Is this working in PHP 5.2.6 and above to echo a value?

either hidden like ratcatme said or <input type="password">

 

Seems like a fair sort of answer, then the value will be visible but will appear as ******

You could just highlight the text.

To be honest, I still have no idea what he's trying to do :S

And no, short tags are not valid in PHP5 unless enabled in the php ini. By default, they're disabled. I think so, anyway :S

Yeh, you are right.short tags are not allowed by default any more in PHP.

One of our programmer make such codes in short tags for a  project. When i update to PHP 5.2.6.

PHP didn't parse the code.I changed all tags to <?php echo .... ?>

Then it works.

sorry my mistake i didn't say what i am trying to do..

 

i am trying to count my empty fields when user submits the form but only when i set value is working

 

ex

if((count($sometng) + count($sopo))<2)
echo...

[LemonInflux]

Count up (manually) the number of values you're expecting. Then do that - count($_POST)

[Pavlos1316]

what do you mean by count up manualy?

[Pavlos1316]

THIS DID WHAT I WANTED...

 

if ((empty($FieldName) + empty($FieldName2) + empty($FieldName3) + empty($FieldName4) + empty($FieldName5) + empty($FieldName6)) > 1){
include....;
echo...;
exit();

 

COUNT IF MORE THAN 2 FIELDS ARE EMPTY.

 

SORRY IF I DIDN'T EXPLAINED IT CORRECT.

 

THANKS FOR HELPING
